Is there any way to instruct lilypond to always place accents above a note first, and then blowing marks? They are all Scripts. I am fully aware of LSR 447 and 965 but I have thousands and I don't want to \tweak each one. LSR 255 does not seem to apply, for some reason. If I specify string number before or after upbow or downbow it makes no difference, and seems to vary in a manner that looks to me random, sometimes one way, sometimes the next. I want to achieve a consistent style: accents - bowing - string number vertically stacked.

(In my tests, accents are put nearer to the note heads than bowing marks, as you desire... but maybe that's sheer luck.)

You might redefine your bowings and accents:

upbow = -\tweak script-priority [some-number] \upbow

accent = -\tweak script-priority [some-number] \accent
dashLarger = \accent

Redefining dashLarger seems to be necessary in order to let -> reflect the new definition. Of course, this has to be repeated for staccato etc., but only once.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by string numbers - Roman numbers indicating I, II, III, IV? Are these text-scripts?
